Science for Engineering aims to develop in the reader an understanding of fundamental science concepts and to give a mechanical, thermal and electrical engineering-systems background for student engineers. The text specifically covers the GNVQ Engineering mandatory units Science and Mathematics for Engineering (Intermediate) and Science for Engineering (Advanced). However, it can be regarded as a basic textbook in engineering science for a much wider range of courses. Clear, concise explanations are supported by over 500 worked examples and over 1000 problems including multiple choice questions to provide practice for the GNVQ end of unit tests.

The aim of this book is to introduce students to the basic electrical and electronic principles needed by technicians in fields such as electrical engineering, electronics and telecommunications. The emphasis is on the practical aspects of the subject, and the author has followed his usual successful formula, incorporating many worked examples and problems (answers supplied) into the learning process. Electrical Principles and Technology for Engineering is John Bird's core text for Further Education courses at BTEC levels N11 and N111 and Advanced GNVQ. It is also designed to provide a comprehensive introduction for students on a variety of City &amp; Guilds courses, and any students or technicians requiring a sound grounding in Electrical Principles and Electrical Power Technology.

Engineering Mathematics is a comprehensive mathematics text for student engineers following Advanced GNVQ/BTEC National courses, and embarking on HNC/D and degree progammes. John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples supported by problems, is ideal for students of a wide range of abilities, and can be worked through at the student's own pace. Theory is kept to a minimum, placing a firm emphasis on problem-solving skills, and making this a thoroughly practical introduction to the core mathematics needed for engineering sudies and practice. This comprehensive foundation maths text is ideal for introductory university modules and a wide range of college courses. The author's proven approach of learning by example is ideal for anyone trying to avoid abstract theory. The contents provide full coverage of all four maths units within the UK Advanced GNVQ scheme. The second edition retains the style and approach that made the first edition of 'Bird &amp; May' so popular. The new edition follows the structure of the four Advanced GNVQ mathematics units offered by BTEC and City &amp; Guilds, making it particularly relevant to GNVQ students aiming for university entrance. John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples supported by problems, is ideal for students of a wide range of abilities, and can be worked through at the student's own pace. The complete maths text for Advanced GNVQ Thoroughly revised and re-structured for GNVQ Written to the latest unit specifications from BTEC and City &amp; Guilds

Electrical Circuit Theory and Technology is a fully comprehensive text for courses in electrical and electronic principles, circuit theory and electrical technology. The coverage takes students from the fundamentals of the subject, up to and including first degree level. Thus, this book is ideal for students studying engineering for the first time, and suitable for pre-degree vocational courses, especially where progression to higher levels of study is likely. John Bird's approach, based on 700 worked examples supported by over 1000 problems (icluding answers), is ideal for students of a wide range of abilities, and can be worked through at the student's own pace. Theory is kept to a minimum, placing a firm emphasis on problem-solving skills, and making this a thoroughly practical introduction to these core subjects in the electrical and electronic engineering curriculum. The second edition includes new material on semiconductor diodes, transistors and operational amplifiers. The content has been carefully matched to the latest syllabuses (including Edexcel) and typical undergraduate modules. 700 worked examples - 1050 problems - Answers to problems included Formula sheets - 18 assessment papers (answers not supplied) Free Tutor Support Material including full worked solutions to the assessment papers featured in the book is available at http://www.bh.com/manuals/0750649895/. Material only available to lecturers who have adopted the text as an essential purchase. In order to obtain your password to access the material please e-mail jo.blackford@repp.co.uk with the following details: course title, number of students, your job title and work address. Comprehensive coverage = easy learning progression from L3 to L4 Careful syllabus matching for 2000/1 Edexcel specifications and current degree modules John Bird's 'learning by example' technique is a thoroughly practical way of gaining knowledge and understanding.

Electrical Circuit Theory and Technology, Second Edition

In this book John Bird introduces electrical principles and technology through examples rather than theory - enabling students to develop a sound understanding of the principles needed by technicians in fields such as electrical engineering, electronics and telecommunications. No previous background in engineering is assumed, making this an ideal text for vocational courses and introductory courses for undergraduates. This new edition of Electrical and Electronic Principles and Technology has been brought fully in line with the new BTEC National specifications in the U.K. for the units: Electrical and Electronic Principles and Further Electrical and Electronic Principles, and the corresponding AVCE units. It is also designed to cover the requirements of Intermediate GNVQ and the new BTEC First specifications. At intervals through the text assessment papers are provided, which are ideal for tests or homeworks. These are the only problems where answers are not provided in the book, but fully worked solutions are available to lecturers only as a free download from the password-protected tutor's area of newnespress.com. * A student-friendly text that does not assume any background in engineering * Learn through examples: over 600 problems, 400 worked examples and assessment papers * Includes assessment papers - worked solutions in free lecturer's manual
